Summary

This is the PIX-E Gif Camera!

My thought process was that I wanted to create a camera that recalled those days when disposable cameras were a thing. Anyone with intermediate making/printing/coding skills should be able to put this together pretty easily.

Incredible design and build!!!
What would be cool
Short press (less than 500ms), take a single picture and store it
Long press (longer than 500ms), system keeps taking pics for the Gif
Double tap (two button presses in under 500 ms) then it records a movie
Very cool project but limited in only making Gif's, if it had the ability to take stills and be able to generate variable length Gif's or movies that would just be more icing on the cake!

I would absolutely love for it to have those features, unfortunately my ability to program in python is pretty limited. I seriously spent a day trying to get the short press picture/long press gif thing to work to no aval.

Luckily all the source code is online, so anyone who wants to take a crack at adding those features absolutely could, and then they should share it with me so I can make my personal PIXE that much better.
